[QUOTE="NWUPSER, post: 138608"] I was a P/T sup for 6yrs and have been driving for they last couple. During my time I've seen friend/T sups and managers lose more and more flexibility in the operations. They seem to be micromanaged more and more, like being told "you will work this many people" and if they work too many their job gets threatened. They end up working 12-14 hours a day to clean up the messes that happen because they are not given the tools and staffing to run a successfull operation. Another downside to friend/T management is you can be transefered to a different operation at any time. Could be on the preload one day and on the night sort tomorrow. Tough to have a family in that atmosphere. Also, I feel like the pay between friend/T sup and driver are pretty competetive when you calculate total hours worked. I've been asked to put my full-time letter in, but I just don't couldn't work in those conditions. Apperently I'm not the only one that feels the grass in greener on this side, in my area a friend in HR tells me that they can't get any P/T sups that go driving to put their letter in for friend/T management. Can't speak for everyone, just my opinion. [/QUOTE]
